PROBLEM STATEMENT
❖ Paraffinand Asphaltene formation
• High contentof saturates,aromatics, asphalteneand resin
togetherwith napthenatecan lead to this causesif its not
treated/takencare
• High molecular paraffin which is known as micro –crystallinewax
will start to form and due to nucleatingagent
❖ High WAT and Pour Point
• Crude start to get viscousand congealat a pointand loosesit
flowing ability
• Frictionof flow will allow the settlingtime for the wax to form
slowly and be on crystalform. Result in high DP.
5.
PROBLEM STATEMENT
❖ Pipeline
•Pipelinedesignitself might contributeto this kind of congealing
crude due to no improperinsulationand heat loss prevention
❖ Crude Character
• Crude character to be studiedwith extendedSARA analysisto
identifythe hydrocarbonschain and the severityof it
• SARA analysis and dissolutiontest will result in the bestsolution
selection
❖ Congeal crude might get coated with Scale
• The congealcrude will becomeevenharder if its coatedwith
water which eventuallybecomescales(embeddedtype
deposition)due to naphthenicacid and water which will cause
hard wax layer

• Due to HUD or tubing choke
• Restrict the flow path
• Increasein ΔP
• Outflow performance
• Emulsion near wellbore
• High molecular deposition

LAB ANALYSIS
Modified SARA[IP 143/90 (ASTM D-3279-90)] - SPE-165912
CII is more than 0.9, instability is
indicated. If it is less than 0.7, the
crudes are generally stable.
10.
Methodology and diagnosis
❖Crude and sample collection
• SARA analysis will be conducted to identify all the possiblehydrocarbons
• WAT (ASTM)
• Pour PointAnalysis (ASTM)
• SARA will indicatethe CII index and the tendency of the precipitation of
wax at elevated temperature
• Hydrocarbonsfractions in SARA will assiston the perfect chemical
solution
• Compatibilitytest and also temperature design
• Dissolution test to identifythe chemical vs deposit
